When it comes to trees on a golf course, architect Ian Andrew's bark is as firm his bite.
Andrew is the consulting architect at the Rideau View Golf Club and, working with the club's Course Operations Committee (COC), has undertaken some tree management for the long-term improvement of the course's appearance, playability and quality of the turf.
Most noticeable at this time, is the removal of the stand of cedars between the third green and the fourth tee as part of improvements, principally to the par-3 fourth hole.
Andrew has carved a strong reputation as a top restorative architect with his work at Top 100 courses like St. George's Golf and Country Club and Highlands Links, among the 22 Stanley Thompson courses on which he has worked.
"The best description I can give is trees are supposed to be the setting, not the stage," said Andrew. "The stage is the turf and the playing field. The trees are supposed to be the accent, on the outside.
"One of the things that has to change here is you've done a lot of planting to try and beautify, or create tree lines or create a parkland setting. The problem is a lot of those trees were placed too close and have now had a chance to grow enough that they are becoming a factor.
"You really shouldn't see a tree within 20 yards of a fairway edge. That kind of gives you a rough idea. If you walked around you would see a lot of stuff inside that line."
In the area of the fourth tee, Andrew said the cedars were preventing an opportunity to enjoy the natural benefits of Rideau View's setting.
The area of the fourth tee is one of the higher points on the front nine, but the cedars were blocking the view back down the third hole and towards the fourth and fifth holes.
"It's a beautiful property and the more trees you've got the less you see of it. The more you open it up the more you can see that the land moves out here quite a bit and that's one of the features and it was kind of lost in the trees for a while. Now it's not," he said.
"Part of it is just to see the crown in the land that occurs in that location. Cedars are not exactly a good golf course tree because you can end up without a shot but also with an unplayable lie and it can take multiple drops to get out from underneath a cedar. You try to avoid cedars. They also inhibit air flow. For healthy turf you need sunlight and you need air flow and one of the greatest hinderances is cedars because they essentially stop airflow. They're like doorstops."
Fescue will be planted behind the third green. Grass waving in the breeze is one of the pleasant sights on a golf course, particularly when it is positioned to menace only a particularly miserable shot.
The hill between the green and tee on No. 4 has also been reduced, allowing a fuller view of the green.
Who doesn't like to hit a good shot and be able to see it finish near the hole?
"It's more about seeing and enjoying shots," said Andrew. "It is a nice setting once you get over the hill and this way you can see it from the tee because you really want to enjoy it from the tee. It's a nice little drop shot, but with the hill it kind of blocked your view."
Andrew has suggested the removal of several other trees including the cedars between the 10th and 18th fairways just off the 10th tee.
He also recommended the expansion of chipping areas around a majority of greens. Closely-mown chipping areas give the player more options and get the player more involved in the game, said Andrew.
"If you've got options then it's an entertaining round of golf," said Andrew. "For the really good players, I like the fact by not having rough around the greens, it allows the ball to get away a little bit on them. If they are overly aggressive, they can find themselves in some terrible places to recover from. That's going to cost them shots by overplaying their hand.
"It's very subtle. It doesn't look penal, but sometimes those runoff areas can lead to some bad spots and some bad situations.
"It's how you can subtly get at their games."
As Rideau View continues to mature as one of Canada's top golf courses, Andrew is recommending less is more.
"The golf course is really good. It's time to focus on the accents now," he said. "The routing is there. The green sites are there. All you're trying to do is show case a little bit more of what you've got by having a little less around it.
"It's like having a room that is cluttered and all you are doing is removing the clutter from the room so you can enjoy the space."

Is there an emulator out there that allows you to play .swf games on the NDS?
No. (There isn't)
It has been attempted, but it didn't work because the DS is simply not powerful enough to handle SWFs.

I'm sure somewhere in this forum this subject has been brought up before and if it has I apologize in advance.
I'm curious about everyone's thoughts on Euthanasia?
I'm certainly not talking about suicide but a physician assisted practice of intentionally ending a life in order to relieve pain and suffering due to a terminal illness. Working in my line of work I see patients needlessly suffering and that wish to die. We do sometimes get a DNR (do not resuscitate) order upon arrival and when I receive the official form I'm relieved that we do not have to work the patient that has no quality of life and does not wish to have any action performed upon them that would extend their suffering. I admire people that have the courage to sign a DNR.
And I suppose while I'm on the subject of quality of life. There comes a point in time that your quality of life becomes less than your quantity of life.
I'll give an example... My Grandfather is 97 years old and is in "relatively" good health considering. He takes no medications but he is frail. He uses a cane to walk but other than that he is of sound mind. He is very religious (which is a problem) but he wants to die. He has outlived his "useful" life. He's always says "I don't know why the Lord doesn't just take me". Now I realize that statement to the vast majority of us on here doesn't register correctly but the underlying meaning is the same. He wants to die. His belief would hold him back from that, but if he was not religious or a non believer then it begs the question... Why shouldn't we be able to choose the time of our death with dignity? He has outlived everyone he has ever known with the exception of his family which consists of my Mother, Father, and me.
My Grandmother passed away about 20 years ago with ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). During the last few months of her life she needlessly suffered and had to be constantly suctioned because she couldn't swallow along with a myriad of other effects of the disease that I won't go into. Why would she not be a candidate for euthanasia? She wanted to die but her religious beliefs stood in the way of that also.
With the exception of a few countries euthanasia is not a common practice. The common ground that I can attribute the non action towards this process is based in religion or belief (though I'm sure there are precedent laws out there also but I'm not a lawyer).
We have no issue with putting down a pet once their quality of life becomes unbearable to them. And as many well know, some pets are part of "your" family. Why shouldn't we be afforded the same luxury?
I'm interested in hearing your responses and thoughts. I'm sure I missed a few things but it's early and I just got off duty from the FD and have not slept in almost 36hrs.
I get to decide what my life looks like, not the other way around.

Thank you for the link. Hopefully it will gain traction throughout the country. I'd imagine much "pushback" will come from the Bible Belt (which I unfortunately live in) but it's good to see some action being taken.

Canada has physician-assisted suicide for terminal illnesses. It doesn't go far enough IMO but it's a start.
---Flesh and blood of a dead star, slain in the apocalypse of supernova, resurrected by four billion years of continuous autocatalytic reaction and crowned with the emergent property of sentience in the dream that the universe might one day understand itself.

I am for it. I think it is cruel to make someone suffer until they pass. It should be the choice of the person to do it.

RE: Euthanasia?
Euthanasia per se is illegal in Australia, although it's not a crime for a person to take their own life. Furthermore, a patient can elect not to receive any treatment for a terminal illness and can also elect to have their life support turned off. It's also a crime for any person assisting with euthanasia.
However, euthanasia is often performed very clandestinely by doctors, as an omission to provide life-sustaining medical treatment is lawful in Australia—unless the patient is deemed mentally incapable of consent.
When each of my 95-year-old parents were admitted to hospital for the (as it turned out) final time, I signed a DNR authority for them.
I'm a creationist... I believe that man created God.

My intent wasn't to put a limit. Massive mental anguish is a bit of a grey area though. Not saying what you put forth isn't valid but It's easy to see the rationale behind what I was speaking about in my original post. Terminal illness is much easier to identify and if there is no chance of survival or returning to a life that has quality then I see no reason we should not be able to determine the time of our death.
It's much harder to (IMO) define mental anguish. Seems a bit like jumping into the realm of suicide and I'm not sure suicide clinics (so to speak) is what I had in mind in my original post. I'm not discounting what you posted. Again... it's a grey area that we can certainly discuss.

RE: Euthanasia?
I think it's a crime that when my dad was at the end and suffering with pain that could not be eased, his only option was to have his lady friend drive to his house and get his prescription of Oxy so that he could take an overdose.
He was in a facility and was on palliative care only. I watched one of the nurses slump against the wall, in tears, outside his room because she could not give him enough medication to relieve his pain without killing him.
I know dad's friend still agonizes over the decision. Dad wasn't able to do it himself and he didn't ask any of us kids to do it while we were there just a week before. My brother wouldn't have. My sister may have...I would have because it was ridiculous to have him just wither away in his own waste.
It's inhumane to make a person die like that...especially when they are fully aware of what's going on and can articulate same.
When a person makes an informed decision to speed up the inevitable and to escape some of the pain there should be allowances for that to happen.
See here they are, the bruises, some were self-inflicted and some showed up along the way. -JF

While their dreams pave our streets and their culture colors the spirit of Los Angeles, undocumented immigrants remain threatened, and their humanity often denied.
In our current political climate, there is an overt attack against undocumented communities, which relegates an erasure of their heritage and the muddling of their voices. However, undocumented artists proclaim their existence through the lens of a camera, the stroke of the brush, and dance of the pen—bridging together art and political opposition in an effort to rise above suppressive forces.
I sat down separately with two artists from different corners of Los Angeles who have created avenues for expression cemented in their experiences as undocumented immigrants.
In conversation with artists Féi Hernandez and Seo Yun Son, I witnessed th e collision of the political and personal lives of the artists, as both elements frame their art as political resistance. Their artworks illustrate their experiences, blurring the man-made borders that impose an illusion of one's own limitations, reminding us that citizenship does not predicate one's humanity
Living in Inglewood, California, Féi Hernandez is a once-undocumented poet, illustrator, painter, and educator. Through the intermingling of multiple art forms, Féi has carved out an artistic space to create pieces deeply rooted in ancestry, spirituality, and community. Living in the shadows for 20 years, Féi shares stories about the abandonment of fear, the interactions between love and resistance, and the need for visibility in the undocumented community. With the recent release of their new project, CL[AMOR], Féi draws a link between art and activism.
Sitting inside a coffee shop in Inglewood, I waited for Féi. It was just a few minutes away from my home, and as a result, I found myself in a familiar space surrounded by the clamoring of a city I became acquainted with through episodes of my life. Knowing that Féi and I shared a connection to Inglewood underpinned a distinct bond before our meeting.
When Féi entered, the energy of the room shifted. Their walk, smile and warmth were enchanting. We moved outside to hear the sounds of the city, rather than the stammers of the air vents. Enveloped by the breeze and hums of Inglewood's streets, we began our interview.
THE PAPER MIXTAPE:Who is Féi Hernandez?
FÉI HERNANDEZ:I am a full time art teacher, organizer with PSL (Party for Socialism and Liberation), and I also spend my time avidly performing and creating art.
TPM:What art mediums do you interact with?
FH:I use watercolor, but I especially love pentel calligraphy ink pens. When I write I paint worlds with words; when I paint I can't help but let the words take up space and be subject matter.
Handing me their recent project, CL[AMOR], I flipped through the pages, noticing the Spanish phrase, "Todo a Su Tiempo," which translates to, "All in good time." Remembering hearing this phrase as a child, I asked Féi about their roots.
FH:I'm Mexican. But I've done some deeper searching, there's Pima Indian from my grandmother's side and from my dad's side there's Tarahumara Indian.
Sharing their family's indigenous origins, Féi began to speak about the importance of maintaining strong links to spiritual practices. Curious about how art and spirituality align for Féi, I asked if creating art manifested as a spiritual experience.
FH:Spirituality is my art. In High School, I found out I couldn't get college grants because I didn't have my documentation. I think something in me cracked; my soul poured out and it wanted a venue. Often times when I'm drawing, I find myself ejected. It's a hardcore meditation.
TPM:Explain the title of your new project, CL[AMOR]?
FH:A long time ago, I wrote a poem entitled "CL[AMOR]", and it was about the moment my mom decided to leave Mexico, and how my grandma wanted me to stay in Mexico.
Juxtaposed by a man's laughter behind us, Féi shared the story of their mom's departure from Mexico.
FH:My mom wasn't safe. When she fled Mexico, my grandma was possessive of me. I wrote this poem because everyone was screaming and bickering. But it's also on the basis of my family's love, my mom's love, self-love, and queer love.
TPM:There's this quote by feminist and civil rights activist, Audre Lorde, that goes, "Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self preservation, and that is an act of political warfare." Is self-love political?
FH:Fuck yes. Absolutely. It is how we sustain ourselves. I'm literally an open book when I'm on stage [reading my poems], or when I'm sharing an art piece. For me, that's resistance.
TPM:How do you feel your art creates a space for undocumented queer people?
FH:[My artwork] is all about occupying space. [But the conundrum is] how do you create space when you've been told you cannot have and do not exist in a space? I started writing and creating art because I didn't see [space for undocumented, queer people] anywhere. For me, that has always been my reason for coming back to Inglewood: to be the mentor I never had and provide the spaces where people can see themselves; it's a violent thing to grow up not seeing yourself.
Claiming one's existence in a society that thrives off of the invisibility of undocumented people is an act of resistance. I asked Féi how claiming a space through art validates their existence.
FH:My artwork specifically is my queer liberation. It's [also] about my undocumented-ness, my invisibility, and how to claim space. It's my spirit on page. I lost fear before I got my documents. I said "No… who are you to fucking tell me that I don't exist." My mother taught me I was a human. In my poems, you'll hear the word "Mom." More than for myself, I do it for her silences. I'm not gonna ignore what she said to me. I'm here, and I'm not going away.
For many undocumented artists, it is difficult to separate their art from their being, making their creations inherently political. Their physical body is often considered a battleground—the subject of debate rooted in notions of legality and nationality.
Seo Yun Son, a UCLA alumni and undocumented artist, explores this question of how to preserve oneself when one's "self" is inherently threatened. Seo seizes this political aspect of her identity, and navigates this territory through photography, writing, and educating.
Seo Yun's art is informed by her experience as an undocumented Korean in America, with underlying themes of family, visibility, and personhood. As an artist, Seo Yun views art as a process of claiming space. As an educator, she extends her activism into the classroom as she facilitates political discussion amongst her students centered on Korean American identity, social issues, and the implications of art.
After driving through the narrow roads of Los Angeles, I met up with Seo Yun in her apartment. Upon entering, I was overwhelmed by a sense of hospitality and openness—one that I immediately wished had enveloped her every time she entered a space. Eyeing her eclectic collection of knickknacks—which included a ukulele, cacti, and various postcards—I caught a sense of Seo Yun's charming nature. Her cat pottered around us, and we fell into rhythm. I opened my notebook and asked Seo Yun to share her history with me.
SEO YUN SON:I found out I was undocumented when I was about 18 years old and applying to college. My grandparents withheld that information until it was deemed necessary to know. When I found out I was undocumented, my hopes, dreams, and aspirations felt threatened. I didn't know if I could afford college. I felt that I was in limbo; there were a lot of opportunities I could not attain due to my undocumented status.
THE PAPER MIXTAPE:In this "limbo," did you struggle with how society perceived your personhood?
SS:I felt like I was neither here nor there. Not only was I technically not an American, I was removed from the Korean culture. It was a loss of identity.
TPM:What role did UCLA play in providing you with resources?
SS:I got connected with the Bruin Resource Center where they hosted a space for IDEAS, an undocumented student group on campus. They helped me realize that I was part of a community.
TPM:Does your art stem from this desire to help the emergence of community?
SS:When I was at UCLA, the art community was insular and very white. I realized [unlike some peers], I couldn't afford to make art for art's sake. I had my own politicized body at stake.
TPM:When did you come to grips with the reality that your existence carried political weight?
SS:I worked under the table for a while in the garment industry. It's fascinating because if you trace the Asian American diaspora in the United States, a lot of Korean women worked at garment factories, including my relatives. It was interesting to see that parallel. Working at the factory was when I realized my own politicized body. I started making work about that.
Finding ancestral connections between her working environment and the history of Korean Americans, Seo Yun understood the intersection between her family lineage and contemporary society. Naturally, her art became informed by her realization. I asked Seo Yun about her art piece, Undocumented, which is a series that features three images from government encrypted documents. She brought out the three prints stored in a large folder and described them as well as the broader nature of her art.
SS:I was interested in the hierarchy of documents. These scans are from the first document that was processed when I found out I was undocumented in 2012.
Focused only on official notices, I wondered whether Seo Yun attempted to highlight the importance of what would appear to be merely a paper for anyone who did not have a familiar connection with it.
SS:These documents have a lot of weight. Viewers can appreciate the appearance of it, but upon a second glance you notice something more. You see, ironically, the Statue of Liberty. You see this symbol of freedom and refuge on a document that tells me I'm only a series of numbers generated to track my presence.
These documents give Seo Yun the opportunity to work as a teacher in the United States. As an educator, she makes it a goal to encourage social critique and political debate.
SS:All my students are Korean American; it is a privilege to teach them. It's also important for them to see a vocal Asian American teacher, which reverses the stereotype that we are silent sufferers. I can't be silent on issues, there's agency in
speaking for myself.
TPM:What do you feel the future of the undocumented art community holds?
SS:I do see an effort in the art community to stimulate discussions on political issues. With my undocumented students, I see how being undocumented can stifle your creativity because the future seems uncertain. All I can hope for is visibility [for disenfranchised people]. Our survival is our revolution.
While current immigration laws seem to establish impenetrable boundaries, art challenges the notion that we must leave these mandates undisturbed. Féi and Seo Yun embody an activism that is far reaching, as their protests reside beyond the canvas and notebook and seep through classroom walls and city streets. As artists, their stories and creations provide a glimpse of a community whose art has often been buried by mainstream media. While both artists highlight the variety of the undocumented experience in Los Angeles, they claim and sculpt their identity—an act of self-preservation. In a world that attempts to silence and dehumanize undocumented peoples, the undocumented art community remains vocal, triggering political discussion as their art becomes a weapon for resistance, a proclamation of self-love, and a sculptor of identity.

One of the reasons I loved Lost so much…until the end anyway…was the character of John Locke. I felt a personal connection to him, and I'm about to explain why.
A little over 10 years ago I was in a diving accident. I snapped bones in my back, dislocating some and crushing others. I was paralyzed from the waist down. Doctors told me I would never walk again. I told them I would prove them wrong.
I spent two years in a wheelchair, working my first through fifth convention as Professor Xavier and working in the Special Needs departments. Year three I was allowed the uses of crutches, and worked a few more conventions. By year four I was almost completely crutch free, and by year five I was able to walk long distances without the use of any aid. That same year they found a tumor in my brain, setting me back a little. Its inoperable, so its still there to this day. Doctors told me I would never lead a normal life. I told them I would prove them wrong.
4 years ago I was diagnosed Bi-Polar with High Anxiety and Panic Disorder, OCD, PTSD and Trichotillomania. They told me I would never be able to hold a normal relationship, live with others or handle most normal jobs. I told them I would prove them wrong.
3 years ago they found tumors in my kidneys, liver and ovaries. They told me if they operated there would be a good chance I wouldn't survive. I was put on alternative medicine instead, and so far no issues have returned. They told me I won't lead a normal life. I told them I would prove them wrong.
6 months ago I got the okay to start training in Muay Thai.
Yesterday I got the date of my first fight. February 11th, 2012 I will be participating in the Muay Thai Smoker in Chicago. Nothing will tear me away from that.
Today I gloat, and tell them all I proved them wrong. I'm walking, running and fighting again. I have no pain additional to the back and neck pain that is common to have. I'm able to hold relationships, touch people (because yes, that was a problem) and folks, I have eyebrows again. I write for a living. I am social. I'm not afraid to leave the house. I even drink from time to time. I hold down a normal office job to help pay the bills. I lead a normal, healthy life.
Don't ever tell me what I can't do.

We bought a bundle of fresh thyme from the grocery store to put in our Butternut Squash. Grand put the thyme in a small cup of water to keep it fresh. As Grand picked off bits of it to use in her dishes, it seemed to be growing. We looked at it yesterday and found out that it had rooted, right there on the windowsill! Who knows how long it had been picked? It had to be shipped to the store too. Plants are so wonderful! Below are some pictures of the amazing herb. We are planning on planting it in a pot on the windowsill, that way we can pick it all winter. We will plant the thyme in the garden this spring. We'll keep you posted on how the thyme does.
Welcome, After years of searching and looking at farm after farm we finally found the one, our own Sweet Summer Farm. Please join us as we share our farming experiences. We are a family of three kids, a mom and dad, and Grand too. We hope you enjoy!

Back home in New Jersey (not the shore), Hawk doesn't seem to be a DJ who encourages "getting the party started," or "putting your hands in the air/ wave them like you just don't care." Hawk is just a dad, who crafted the driving rhythms of his debut, Seek Magic, in the rural New Jersey cocoon he calls home. Before he joined up with Philly post-rockers, Hail Social, crippling social anxiety disorder once put him on lock-down in his own living room. Yet, Memory Tapes opens the door to Hawk's private world and we peek in on the introspective spaces and lighthearted escapes hidden into each track. In this self-imposed house arrest, Hawk channels his obsessiveness to crank out remixes, which he releases at his blog Weird Tapes. We'd like you to hear a few, so after the jump, we've put together some free downloads and vids of our favorite Memory Tapes Remixes.

CARE and Cargill's partnership of more than fifty years is a testament to the values we share. Over the past eight years, this partnership has helped improve the lives of more than 300,000 people around the world.
In 2008, Cargill and CARE launched a five-year partnership to reach men, women and children in rural communities with nutritional, educational and economic opportunities for growth. PROSPER: Promoting a Sustainable and Food Secure World, is the new $6 million three-year phase of the CARE-Cargill partnership that will amplify the success of previous programming and explore new opportunities to promote a sustainable and food secure world.
The program will engage communities in key areas to foster gender equitable food and nutrition security by building the capacities of marginalized populations to prosper in a static environment rather than exhausting resources to recover from shocks. While programs vary by country, the initiative provides training, skills-development, and market access for farmers; enhanced education and nutritional support for children; and access to social services like health care and safe drinking water, for communities.
The partnership aims to take our program approaches to scale by engaging governments, civil society actors, and Cargill business partners in order to reach 1 million people by 2020.

Sometimes in life there comes a moment when you feel completely lost. The things which should have gone your way spiral out of control and that is where you whiff defeat and desperation. Author Varun Gautam in his book "The Symbol" tries to measure the hard strides of life through a microscopic and mythical view. So is he successful in creating that aura? Let's find out.
A perfectly written script goes awry when Arjun encounters the unexpected. His belief in occult injustice solidifies when he, on one hand, fails to clear the much coveted IMS entrance exam and on the other hand, his friend Mohan gets more than what he deserved in life. Unable to cope up with this unfairness, he becomes directionless. With no way forward and some strained relations, he reaches the peak of monotony in his life and has nowhere to draw his inspiration from. One day suddenly he gets hold of a device called The Symbol which promises to solve all his problems.
Can The Symbol help him come out of his woes?
Will he be able to rise above the so called injustice and prove his mettle?
It is a journey that takes a peek into finding a new perspective and chartering inspiration from unknown territories, where none was thought to have existed.
First look at the title and the cover and a reader can get lost in the maze of symbols and encrypted writings. So much so for the cover even the title hints at what is going to be part of the book. The blurb talks about a young boy who struggles to get hold of his life and how journey of his life takes turns to lend him a hand of solace and despair. A good blurb with only a limited view to get an idea of the story.
The story is of Arjun, who is young and reckless and is headed nowhere. His life is surrounded with goals and burdens which never seem to ease out. But then a chance comes by and it all comes down to a circle when everything with him goes upswing and he tries to catch hold of it. So will he really be able to turn it around? Will life offer a homecoming to Arjun? That's what the story is all about.
The crisp narration and very few glimpses of a nice story are the only saviors of the story. Simple narration can also be added to the already lost glory.
The downside of the book is it's ever dull and faltering story line. Time and again the author relies on world cup excerpts to give story an edge, but it fails to ignite passion and it fells flat. The branch of some respite snaps as it takes a monotonous shape and the failure and struggles turn out to be dud affair by the end of the book. There is no purpose in the first half as most of it is lost in booze and unnecessary jealousy. Character driven story is completely amiss.
All in all the book is a pale offering and fails to savor the excite the reader. It tries to turn around the lost cause by offering a different touch, but that is where it all goes pale. The story could have lent a more meaningful purpose as the outlook looks completely misleading and strangely there is no befitting finish to it either. A very average book.

Tomorrow is the big day.
Bone marrow biopsy. Technically I am having a "Bone Marrow Exam". Bone marrow biopsy just sounds so much cooler and people sort of understand what it means, which is why I use the term. For those of you who do not know much about bone marrow procedures, briefly (and without too much graphic detail) bone marrow provides really great information about what is happening at the cellular level. During a bone marrow biopsy the doctor takes a solid/bone sample of tissue and during a bone marrow aspiration the physician takes a fluid sample. Usually both are taken during an all encompassing procedure known formally as a Bone Marrow Exam.
I had 5 of them in 2007-2008.
So tomorrow is not really that big of a deal. But it kind of is because I will see the oncologist, have the procedure, start a new chemotherapy, hope that my body can handle the new chemo, hope that the new chemo works, and wait for the results of the bone marrow exam to confirm what the doctor suspects (that my body has become resistant to the current chemo).
This is the deal with bone marrow biopsies, or bone marrow exams. Most people are given twilight sedation to get through it. Twilight sedation is strong enough that you don't really feel much but is light enough that it does not require an inpatient anesthesiologist (so the procedure can be done at the cancer clinic, outpatient).
There are people out there who don't get sedation with bone marrow exams, and if I understand correctly some hospitals do not offer it. I am not one of those people. I go with the sedation option and even sedated, there is a moment where I always wake up.
The same oncologist who performed my bone marrow exams in 2007-2008 will perform tomorrow's exam. He trained at America's top cancer center. He is a good oncologist and knows what he is doing (it just still hurts, no matter who does it).
~So This is How it Goes~
I get to the cancer clinic.
They send me to the lab to draw a bunch of blood and I go through that awful internal conflict of emotion, it happens every time: I feel sort of sorry for myself that I go through this stuff but at the same time, I feel guilty because I can guarantee that just an hour ago a really fabulous person was in this same chair close to dying, so I have no right to feel any sense of self pity. The way I deal with it: I ask the people who are drawing my blood to tell me about their families, or I notice that their scrubs are cute (I used to think that scrubs with designs were not cute, now I find them to be a wonderful distraction, amazing how your opinions change according to your vantage point).
Then they send me to a room and put me in a hospital gown, and from then on, I am freezing cold.
I waiver between states of complete silence and then being super chatty (because that is what I do when I am nervous, I giggle and talk too much). Fortunately my sister who has the gift of cool sarcasm will be with me, so she can give me something to laugh at while I shiver with nerves in the gown, in the cold room, on the cold table.
Then the nursing staff start coming in and they are really nice. I continue to be chatty and just stupid silly because I am nervous. They always know how to deal with nervous people talking in nonsensical circles about absolutely nothing (I have provided them with plenty of practice). After many questions, chart updates and vitals, they start the IV drips and I try really hard to stay awake because nobody wants to be that person who never fell asleep before the procedure started.
In real time, before you know it, you are actually totally asleep and the procedure has been going on for a while. That is when the oncologist announces something along the lines of "ok Jessica, I am going to (puncture your tail bone with a wine bottle opener)". I cannot remember exactly what he says but he does alert me that he will be doing something that might hurt.
And each time, I must open my eyes because I always see this thing that looks similar to a wine bottle opener and I always hear myself make a small yelping sound and then the next thing you know, I am surrounded by people who love me saying my name while I try so hard to wake up in a recovery room. And I know I look so ugly because I am sleeping so hard, but there is nothing I can do to fix it (because I really was drugged).
So, that is how it goes.
Except for that one time
…the 4th out of the 5 exams in 2007-2008….
There are only a few places which harvest enough bone marrow that the doctors can rely on as a good source. The most common place is a tiny area near the hip. Tiny area. That year, my doctor had to go to that area for samples 5 times. The 4th time he hit a spot where he had already taken samples. Holy Smokes. I came off the table. Actually I didn't because I was sedated but I remember crawling up the procedure table and in real life it was probably a pretty funny scene (watching me try to escape, slow motion).
When I woke up my doctor explained what had happened and that he was going to send me inpatient for the 5th exam where they could do the procedure under fluoroscopy (it's like a moving x-ray) while putting me under stronger sedation. Too many samples had been taken that year so it was very hard to not hit a spot that had already been hit (especially without the fluoroscopy).
It's been right at 7 years and I am hoping that the bone marrow hip area is all healed up, that it won't hurt the way it did that 4th of 5 times.
If you are praying for us these days, please pray that I get through tomorrow smoothly. And please pray that this crohn's flare stops. It hurts horribly. Truth be told the chron's pain is my biggest problem these days. It is awful. As I will be starting new medications tomorrow, I must be able to get food on my stomach to help with nausea. Please pray that God will be merciful.
Thank you again for your support.
Wrapping it up in gratitude, today I am grateful for:
1. Strong support from family and friends
2. A warm house and bed
3. My husband's patience and unconditional love for me
4. Scrambled eggs (which I wrote about just the other day)

or isolating the frame from the wall substrate, and incorporating
weepholes and internal passages.
Anchorage. In typical wood frame construction, window
frames are nailed to the walls. Because security glazing systems
must resist attack, they have to be anchored to the walls.
Some frame designs, for concrete construction, use
anchor bolts for a dual purpose. They not only serve to anchor a
frame to a structure, but also serve as fasteners of the
removable stop. Since a glazing must be removable without
destroying the wall, careful consideration must be exercised as
to the type of anchor bolt used in this design. Sleeved anchors
and compression bolts which cannot be reinstalled are
unacceptable for this application.
Place anchorage and fasteners on the protected side for
security integrity and ease of replacement.
Anchor Bolt Types. Three types of anchors are
available for installing glazing systems:
a) Taper Bolt
b) Expansion Sleeve Anchor
c) Embedded
Taper Bolt. Taper bolts have a uniform body diameter
construction. The taper bolt incorporates a tapered thread on
the bolt and a matching tapered thread in a nut. When screwed
into a nut, the bolt wedges or anchors into concrete. Once the
taper bolt is installed, it can be removed and reinstalled again
without breaking up the wall. This allows replacement of the
window frame without major wall work. Figure 4 illustrates a
typical taper bolt design.
Expansion Sleeve Anchor. The expansion sleeve anchor
incorporates a reduced body and mushroom end (see Figure 4). The
reduced body fits inside a sleeve that wedges against the
mushroom end.
Sleeved anchor bolts have only the strength of their
inner bolt diameter in tension. If the expansion anchor is a
multi-sleeved "spacer" design, its shear strength is only equal
to that of the diameter of the inner bolt at the plane between
the spacers. For this reason, the sleeved spacer design is not
recommended for security applications.

How To Pull Off Barbie Pink Lipstick
Barbie pink lipstick may not be the main trend of Spring 2015 season but it definitely made impression during Milan Fashion Week. The brand that built their whole collection for the season was Moschino who stepped away from their favorite red with this.
Choosing the right pink shade for your complexion is as important as with any other lipstick color. Learn how to choose lipstick here.
Tips for Wearing Barbie Pink Lipstick
Moschino Spring 2015 show
Nicky Minaj and Rihanna have easily worn barbie pink in public but what about an everyday person? Well, if your goal is to make barbie pink wearable there are a few steps you can take while creating the look.
Go Matte
If you don't want that plastic look on your lips you may benefit from going for a matte texture as seen at Aquilano.Rimondi. Toss the gloss and creamy lipstick in favor of barbie pink matte products making sure your lips are fully prepped and properly moisturized.
Try Sheer
If matte texture doesn't work for you try using sheer barbie pink. You'll find it most wearable in real life and quite easy to fix during the day. Pink tinted lip balm is a perfect thing for this. It moisturizes your lips and gives you the most natural pink.
Aquilano.Rimondi Spring 2015, backstage
Keep Focused
Trying to replicate Barbie's whole look may not be such a good idea. Recall Nicky Minaj back in 2011. Instead opt for barely there eye makeup (think a coar or two of mascara) and keep the focus on the lips. Also it may be a good idea not to wear a blonde wig.
Other variations of pink have been spotted at Tahir Sultan Spring 2015 show. It's a much brighter pink that is closer to fuchsia. The models had it paired with glittered eyes and top knots, which once toned down could be a great holiday look.

Waterproofing and drainage considerations are especially needed in cases where ground water is likely to build up in the soil and raise the water table.We can also use land drainage around a property to help move water away from the building where possible. A higher water table causes hydrostatic pressure to be exerted underneath basement floors and against basement walls.
Hydrostatic pressure forces water in through cracks in foundation walls, through openings caused by expansion and contraction of the footing-foundation wall joint and up through floor cracks. Hydrostatic pressure can cause major structural damage to foundation walls and is likely to contribute to mold, decay and other moisture related problems.
Basement expectations can lead to disappointment if it is discovered that the basement is rendered uninhabitable by water ingress and requires basement waterproofing or a water management solution. No matter the degree of damage utilising the latest innovations within basement waterproofing, our specialist Wise Basement Systems team can transform the most soiled and polluted basement into an area suitable for domestic use using the latest basement waterproofing techniques.
Our advanced basement waterproofing treatments and systems for excessive moisture encourages management of water rather than physical retention. Our Wise Basements systems division, while considering all available techniques, will normally install an advanced air gap membrane system.
This is installed for basement waterproofing walls and floors providing you with a basement ready for renovationwith the peace of mind of a 10 year Sovereign Guarentee.

CREA West Lakes College SEN Centre was the location of todays CREA (Cumbria Rural Enterprise Agency) Under Contruction event.
The event was well supported by Cumbria Chamber of Commerce, Britain's Energy Coast Business Cluster, Thomas Armstrong, Story Construction, ESH Group, Stobbarts Ltd, Burnetts Solicitors and many others.
The Green Deal featured heavily as did the need for creating relationships to win business.
It was a great opportunity to network and gain greater knowledge of the work being done by local organisations to raise the profile of business in West Cumbria.

The easy SCS PAC giving program that skips the door-to-door
As you may know, SCS receives only 80% of the funds that other Sherwood District schools receive. Of that, 8% goes toward rent and utility costs other schools don't have. Your donation helps span this gap as together we support what matters most: A well-rounded, rich, and diverse learning environment for our kids.
What is Kids First?A simplified fundraising program that helps address the 20% funding gap Sherwood Charter School faces every year. You make a direct donation to the SCS PAC, eliminating the need for a barrage of door-to-door sales activities.
Are Kids First and PEF the same?Kids First (KF) and the Program Enhancement Fee (PEF) have a shared goal to benefit SCS. They are not the same, nor are they competing efforts. Both are important in making SCS go. Here are the key differences:
KF: A fundraiser by the PAC, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, with the flexibility to help the school in a number of ways, including things outside what the school might otherwise budget for. Your contribution to Kids First is tax deductible (PAC Tax ID# 20-3718301).
PEF: A fee paid directly to SCS to support enrichment activities like field trips, PE equipment, art supplies, and musical instruments.
How are the funds used?Kids First is what it says, a total focus on benefiting our kids. While that can take many forms, here is the commitment:
The funds raised are used to help deliver a high-quality, well-rounded education at SCS.
The PAC Board, which includes all parents and guardians of current SCS students, votes on how the funds are distributed and a teacher liaison helps us understand the needs of the educators.
Who can contribute to Kids First?Anyone can! While we may not have our kids out peddling cookie dough and popcorn tins to our family, friends, and neighbors, we can still ask our family, friends, and neighbors to contribute. And it's tax deductible for them too.
Does your employer have a charitable matching program? That's another great way to increase your contribution to Kids First. If you need any information from the PAC for your employer program, please contact the PAC Officers at firstname.lastname@example.com.
How much do I contribute?We're a community and we're all in this together. With H.E.A.R.T. as our guide:
Our 2017-18 goal is $20,000. An ideal contribution per child is $200.
We honor and support that $200/child can be a challenge, so the main message is: Give what you can. And remember it doesn't all have to come from you.
How do I contribute?Anyone can donate to Kids First online using PayPal. This method allows you to use the debit or credit card of your choice and also allows you to set up recurring payments.
You can also contribute via check or cash. Mail or hand-deliver your donation to:
21370 SW Langer Farms Pkwy, Suite 142, #437 - Sherwood, OR 97140
This is the UPS Store in Sherwood. We recommend hand delivery if making a cash donation.
Make checks payable to SCS PAC.
If it works better for you to spread out your donations throughout the school year, you're welcome to make multiple check or cash donations. Please include a note letting us know if your check or cash donation is your sole donation for the year or if you will be making multiple donations. Alternately, feel free to print and include the bottom portion of the Kids First Flyer. This helps the PAC Officers forecast how much effort we will need to put into outreach throughout the year.

Supporting you and protecting your property are our top priorities.
Get in touch and let us know how we can help.
In October 2015, new regulations were introduced to the private rented sector requiring every landlord to install smoke and carbon monoxide alarms on each floor of a property. The landlord must evidence that all alarms are tested and working at the start of each tenancy. Fines for non-compliance are a maximum of £5,000 for each failure. No Letting Go will ensure you are compliant. We will check that your alarms are in the correct location, are functioning at move in and install new ones where necessary. All No Letting Go reports have a smoke and carbon monoxide safety section that will guarantee you meet the regulations.

Happy Easter season! After the penitential weeks of Lent, it's time to celebrate. When you join Heart of the Nation for Sunday Mass, the Gospel readings in April will recount for you the surprising reactions as people encountered the Risen Lord. Jesus waited to see how long it would take a couple of travelers on the road to Emmaus to recognize Him. His closest friends thought He was a ghost. (Surely, Jesus understood. He had come into a locked room without using the door, after all.) Thomas wasn't there and later had to see for himself befoRead More

Gillian Kearney's character is set for a 'dramatic death' in Emmerdale
- Bang Showbiz
- 8 May 2017
Gillian Kearney's character is set to be killed off in 'Emmerdale' this year
Gillian Kearney's character is set for a "dramatic death" in 'Emmerdale'.
The 44-year-old actress, who portrays the Emma Barton in the longstanding soap, is set to be killed off on the programme later this year because the production team reportedly felt she had to have her comeuppance after "all the trouble" she has caused by murdering her on-screen estranged husband James Barton (Bill Ward).
Speaking about the forthcoming storyline to The Sun Online, a source said: "The writers were looking for their big summer story and they decided Emma would be at the centre of it. They felt there had to be retribution for all the trouble she's caused.
"They are going to be writing in more devious storylines for her and building her into a complete psycho."
And it is unknown whether Gillian - who made her debut appearance in the Yorkshire Dales in 2015 - will be making a comeback in the future.
The source explained: "Gillian had a discussion to see if they would leave the door open for Emma but they wanted a dramatic death."
However, the brunette beauty and her colleagues are believed to be unhappy about the plot, and the departure of former co-stars, including Kelvin Fletcher, because they feel they are "not being recognised" for their work.
The insider said: "It's put a few noses out of joint, as there's a feeling that the actors who put in the graft are not being recognised and either made to leave or killed off."

Use Cases
There are several ways that our assessments can provide value to your company.
1. Vendor security reviews – if you have a potential customer who requires an independent security review, we can help you. On the other hand, if you would like to make sure software is secure before deploying it within your company's infrastructure, we can verify its safety for you.
2. Market readiness – our clients rely on us to make sure they don't release a new feature that could compromise its users or damage its brand. Before you release new software, engage with us to make sure it's ready for any threats you'll encounter.
3. Security education – if you need to make sure your software is safe, engage with us and we'll not only find your vulnerabilities, we'll teach you how to avoid them in the future based on your stack and platform.
We bundle automated source code analysis with our application security assessments, but we also offer separate, manual source code review.
Web Applications
Our assessments are rigorous, but they do not just follow a checklist. We look for everything you'd expect to find defined by OWASP, but we also pride ourselves in looking for trickier to classify vulnerabilities within the context of your software.
Mobile Applications
Mobile applications are also increasingly popular, with many successful companies relying entirely on mobile applications for revenues.
Many of the vulnerabilities commonly found in web applications also apply to mobile applications. We offer mobile assessments on iOS and Android platforms. When we conduct assessments, we look for security flaws in authentication, session handling and input handling as we would in web applications; however, we also prioritize vulnerabilities that particularly impact the mobile environment. For example, many mobile applications leave AWS secret keys embedded in file or directory locations that can be easily found. Sometimes sensitive data storage is incorrectly or insufficiently encrypted. Still elsewhere we find authentication models that do not offer proper account protection for users.
During a mobile assessment we explore the application as we would with a web application, but we also decompile it and explore it from the inside out. We look for vulnerabilities in the same way an attacker would with access to the software on a mobile device.
Desktop Applications
Desktop (or "client") applications are still the most widely used programs today. Email clients, web browsers, text/document editors and other large desktop software are all extremely valuable targets for security compromise.
If your product is a desktop program, our assessment will find the holes in its security. We work with software produced for Windows, OS X and Linux. An audit from us includes decompilation and static analysis, followed by specialized auditing for memory corruption vulnerabilities, insecure file/system access, insecure logging or improper security controls. We deliver findings using both automated and manual methods, but all methods include extensive manual oversight and attention.

Your aging parent loves to travel. Whether they utilize a wheelchair or walking aid to assist them or have a reliable spouse to accompany them, it is natural to be concerned about their safety while traveling. While you don't want to limit their activities as they age, there are measures you can take to provide you peace of mind while your elderly parents indulge their desire to explore the world.
As a leading provider of Texas home care, serving Denton and Collin counties, we wanted to share some easy ways concerned adult children can help seniors prepare for a trip, ensuring their safety each step of the way.
- Talk with their doctor or physician. Before leaving for the trip, it is important that your loved one visits with their doctor or primary care physician to check for any health conditions that could put them at risk during their travels. The doctor can also go over important items such as limiting physical activity, managing medications while on the road, and getting proper amounts of rest.
- Help with packing. With age, it becomes difficult to carry heavy bags, especially when they need to be loaded and unloaded from a car, the overhead compartment of an airplane or in and out of a hotel. Encourage your family member to bring only what they need, reducing the load. With a lighter bag in hand, they also reduce their risk of injury from pulling a muscle or losing their balance attempting to carry it. Also, make sure they have a backpack or carry-on that includes more than enough medications for their entire trip.
- Prepare lists and essential documents. Help your senior loved one prepare by gathering any essential documents they might need throughout their trip. Make photo copies of important identification cards, including their state ID and passport in case one is misplaced. Also, create a list including emergency phone numbers, current medications and medical history. This can help ensure proper care if an emergency arises.
- Check for Senior-Friendly Amenities and Assistance. Check your loved one's itinerary and see what you can find out as far as special services, which might include early boarding for flights, senior accessible hotel rooms and restaurants or tour groups accommodate dietary specifications or restrictions. Many travel outfits will accommodate these needs with the proper notice, helping make your loved one's trip hassle free.
- Enlist in the help of a senior travel companion. Care agencies such as Home Care Assistance have professional and compassionate caregivers who are available to travel with their clients. Just as the caregiver would provide 24 hour care to the senior at home, they can provide assistance during every moment of a vacation or trip, maximizing safety and comfort at all times. Gain peace of mind and learn more about 24 hour care for seniors in Denton and Collin Counties.
Looking for other travel tips! Contact Home Care Assistance today and speak with a devoted Care Manager at 972-468-6010. We are available 24/7 and are more than happy to answer any of your questions and can also help you schedule a complimentary no obligation consultation.

Planning a web application and working on a real-life project are two different things. When you plan a web application, you plan an idea but, when you develop that idea, you have to work on various complex web application development technologies like .NET, PHP, Ajax, SharePoint Java, J2EE and Web 2.0; in many cases, two or more technologies are implemented together for a common goal. Thus, web application development is a complex field and it's gradually becoming popular because of an ever increasing requirement of creative, productive and functional websites. People, especially from the business world, have grasped the potentials of web apps, so they are focusing more and more on getting custom web applications developed for managing their various business activities and processes in a better and efficient way.
Although, different tools are already available that can directly be applied to manage business tasks but, they do not always satisfy specific requirements of a business. Here, businesses use more than one application to comprehend a common task and do face increased costs and requirement of extra time. For efficiently executing specific business tasks, the best solution here is to go through custom web applications development.
Using .Net framework is instantly justified to produce high-quality and consistent website applications. .Net framework is fast, robust and has capacity to deal with huge volume of users.
.NET Development is one widely implemented technology derived from Microsoft. .Net applications deliver superior functionalities and remarkable performance. .Net Framework is an advanced tool to build and run desktop applications and Web Services. It supports a variety of programming languages, and provides a managed environment for execution, simplified and customized developments and then deployment of tasks accordingly. Other .Net Framework technologies are ADO.NET, ASP.NET, Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), and Windows Workflow Foundation (WWF).
Converting tons of amorphous data into remarkable silos is the only intelligence of SharePoint and I think it is what an organization eagerly looks for.
If you want a functional tool for web content management and document management, going through SharePoint development can be the only option. SharePoint is an incorporation of Windows SharePoint Services (WSS), Microsoft Search Server (MSS) and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS); each of them has individual functionalities, yet depends on each other to execute a common task. If properly implemented and operated, Microsoft SharePoint System delivers huge benefits in terms of collaboration, compliance improvement and content control. Choosing SharePoint development is doubtlessly the best tool to attain collaboration-work tasks.
Ajax, a combination of many web technologies, enhances web functionalities and gives break to start-stop-start-stop behavior of web and helps web pages request to a bit of information, not the entire pages.
Many businesses want truly dynamic content and web apps or web page without page-refresh, and for all of them, Ajax application development is an ultimate choice. Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) is a rapidly coming-out amalgam of several technologies, used to build and create diverse web pages and web applications. It has filled the gap between web applications and user-end PCs. It is the most popular technology to develop web applications with beyond-compare speed, usability and interactivity. AJAX is absolutely an advantage for any sort of web application development, from a simple site to complex one. AJAX is a mix of manifold development techniques and programming; each of them has their significance to provide powerful functionality. By opting Ajax application development, designers and developers bring desired dynamicity and interactivity on web. Since Ajax came into use, the internet has become more interactive, and even more popular than ever before. The best trait of Ajax is the decreased use of bandwidth.
Reduced web maintenance costs, desired suppleness, easy handling, attractive design and smooth running are some of the best features a PHP application can deliver. Most of the organizations want to see these aspects realized.
Java, J2EE and Web 2.0 are also very useful technologies widely used for web application development. Java application development is recommended for secured web; network-centric programming; dynamic, extensible programs; and matchless performance. You can also choose J2EE application development, providing complete support to web services, rapid conceptualization of solutions and delivery, freedom of choice, and simplified connectivity.
